Angel’s Tijuana Tacos

There are so many Angel’s Tijuana Tacos locations around Los Angeles. No matter where you go, you’ll find tacos packed with flavor and your choice of grilled meat and then, as to be expected from the style, a sprinkling of cilantro and onions along with a hearty dollop of avocado salsa. The handmade corn tortillas—which are exactly the perfect thickness—get formed, pressed and seared down the assembly line here and the trompo-shaved al pastor proves its own bit of showmanship, making every visit not only delicious but a feast for the eyes, too. Opt for tacos ($2.50), mulitas ($8), vampiros ($4.50), quesadillas ($9–10) and burritos ($9) in North Hollywood, Glassell Park, Echo Park, Sylmar, Van Nuys, Chatsworth and Long Beach (plus a few more in Orange County, Riverside and San Bernardino).
